[CC-ARES-RACES] Amateur Radio Equipment "FOR SALE"

[cc-ares-races@mailman.qth.net]

Dear Fellow Amateur Radio Operators,

        One of our long standing Club members has decided to sell some
amateur radio equipment.  Mr. Fenwick, N3VIL,  requested a few of us
visit his home in Benedict, MD., for purposes of inspecting his radio
equipment, and assigning values.  We did not operate any equipment, nor
bench test same.  We did, however, note that all of their equipment
appeared to be quite clean and well attended by N3VIL. Here is a listing
of gear and prices.

Thank you and Happy Motoring  

Happy Motoring was a great phrase originating from ESSO, (circa 1967).  I
was a pump attendant making 30 cents an hour.  "Ding  Ding" rang the
bell, after the  '54 Willy's ran over the rubber hose (flathead 4 cyl and
wipers that went back and forth only as fast as could make your arm go
back and forth, with that wooden wiper handle in your hand). I would run
out from my task at the moment, which may have been stocking the NECCO
Wafer display or manually studding a winter tire (tough work).  I greeted
the customer, pumped the gas (18-24 cents/gal in the mountains of PA),
washed the windscreen, checked the oil, and smiled during the entire
function.  The gas was sold in quantities of gallons instead of a
'fill-it-up'  or 'give me three dollars worth'. Usually, it was "Gimme 5
gallons please". I felt like a big-shot when I figured out that secret
location for the gas cap on those darned '57 Chevys.  And pennies made up
the lion's share of the transaction, as I typically dropped them with my
cold and fat,  sausage-like fingers. Gave the customer either Top Value
Trading Stamps, S&H Green Stamps, or Plaid Stamps. And the driver never
left the car, except to visit our clean toilets or have a bottle of
Sundrop Pop or Moxie.  Remember the ESSO tiger tail hanging from your
tank?  Or the classic "Tippecanoe and Tiger, Too" bumper stickers?    
With great memories like that, I can never deny being a lucky guy.


Regards and 73,

Lee Flick,  N3YWZ
